New Lego-building AI creates models that actually stand up in real life
1 min read
Summary
LegoGPT is an AI model from Carnegie Mellon University that designs Lego models according to text prompts.
It ensures that the designs are physically possible to build, unlike other AI design models.
The model creates simplified designs that are more primitive in shape, forming the shapes using fewer brick types.
The model could be used to simplify the process of creating building instructions for sophisticated Lego models, simplifying this tedious and expensive process.
It could also be used in robotic assistants that build Lego structures, providing a solution for automated Lego construction.
The research paper “Generating Physically Stable and Buildable Lego Designs from Text” is available on the arXiv website.
Detection of figures and shapes in Lego structures is another application area.
